The resolution also features a list of border gates and airports that will accept electronic entry.
Eight airports that will accept e-visas include Noi Bai and Tan Son Nhat int’l airports.
Vietnam started a two-year e-visa pilot programme for foreigners from 40 countries on February 1, 2017.
The pilot scheme did not require foreigners to be sponsored or invited by organisations or individuals in Vietnam to be applicable for the e-visas, as long as they have valid passports and are citizens of one of the 40 listed countries.
Foreigners are not required to be present at representative agencies of Vietnam in their countries, get interviewed or scan their fingers to apply for e-visas.
They can go directly to the website https://immigration.gov.vn and apply for e-visas themselves./.
